GitHub Advisory malware sweep, 7 September 2026
Yesterday's (Sept 6) sweep captured 13 npm items; the queue then flushed ~200 more, mostly published as of 2026-09-06 and continuing into 2026-09-07. Three coherent clusters (tea.xyz eka-<indonesian-food><N>-<suffix> autopublish, tea.xyz eigenstate-<astronomy>-<tech>-<lib> autopublish, and effective_/efficient_<animal>_z3n research spam) plus a long tail of misc E-prefix drops.
